Heartland

This week we lost an England World Cup winner, George Cohen. RIP and thank you to George, who did something we just haven't been able to do again. Thoughts are with his family.

Today we lost Pele, who was one of the few who touched the whole of world football in nothing but a positive way. A true great, an inspiration, a winner, a talent and a star.

Let's hope that these games are worthy tributes too, and they're played with these two in mind.

Raise a Rimet in their honour.

RIP Pele

Pele changed how people think of footy. He's the epitome of Brazilian flair, as artful and creative as he was skilled. He took the game to another level. Ultimately, what we see today, from kids doing ball tricks in the street, to EA programming all manner of moves into FIFA, to just about every over-the-ball deke and deception at every level of the game, traces back to him.

Ten Hag dropped Rashford for a disciplinary matter?
Rashford being a bad boy? What?
Did he have too much xmas dinner at his mum's or something?

Fell asleep in a team meeting
we'll all been there

Another GW started already? Oh eff, that's two on the bounce I've missed now.

Quick round up of the tables -
IGM actually won a week, which is rather marvellous. Still lagging behind in seconds place, but all we need to do is hope that BB&S have a couple of disasters like City did last night.


The Yellow Jersey is still with Dead Men Walking - can you give it a wash, Andy? It's due one.



The Big Shout Out went to Oliver's Army (He's One Of Our Own) with 74



Over on the H2H we had a complete disaster but are still second



Real SoSoBad is in the shiny crown



The last game of GW19 is about to start, so look out for the results on the Cure Community soon. I'm off to look at GW20
